Checkbox Problem

Recommended Posts

Hi

I am having trouble using multiple forms with the checkbox,

i am listing results from the database such as the name of the person and the reference number and on the listings i have the checkbox to select the User using the 2 forms to perform the actions one for delete the selected users and other to multiple edit the Users information.

The problem is that is only running the Delete User when i press the Edit User button it doesn't show any values from the checkbox i think the form buttons are entering
in  conflict. I tryed to close the Edit user Form </form> before the While loop but that doesn't run the checkbox values also.

Is there any other way to perform this?

This is the code that i am using , on the second file that is actions.php i just put to print the checkbox values:


[code]
<?  echo "<form id='form1' action='actions.php?action=delete_user' method='post' enctype='multipart/form-data' name='form1'>";    ?>
 
<input type="submit" name="delete" value="Delete User" />
 

<?  echo "<form id='form2' action='actions.php?action=edit_user  ' method='post' enctype='multipart/form-data' name='form2'>";  ?>
   
<input type="submit" name="edit" value="Edit user" />



<? while($result = mysql_fetch_array($sql))    {  ?>


<?

$ref=$result["reference"];
          echo "<INPUT TYPE='checkbox' NAME='checkbox[]' VALUE='$ref'>";

?>

<? 

printf("<font color='#000000'>%s</font>",$result["reference"]); 
printf("<font color='#000000'>%s</font>",$result["user_name"]); 


?>

<?  }  ?>
 
 
</form>
</form>





  -> File actions.php


<?


require ("setup.php");

$link=mysql_connect("$host","$dbuser","$dbpass");
mysql_select_db("$bdname");



switch ($action) {


  case "delete_user":
 

  $checkbox_cnt  = count($checkbox);

  for ($i = 0; $i < $checkbox_cnt; $i++)
  {
    echo $checkbox[$i];


}
 
break;


case "edit_user":
 

  $checkbox_cnt  = count($checkbox);

  for ($i = 0; $i < $checkbox_cnt; $i++)
 
{    echo $checkbox[$i];  }
 
break;




} // End of Switch Case ///////////////


?>[/code]

If someone can help me with this i appreciate,

Thanks to all
